ok, finally decided to make use of the Xanga blog. X <--that will be where i keep record of training/exercise stuff, and this place will be for all the other random muck that goes through my brain on a regular basis.
no time to think up anything substantial today, but i'll put in a plug for the UBC Triathlon/Duathlon i'll be attempting (attempt is the key word here) next Saturday, March 11:

Heat #6, 1250 start.
you should go.
do it!
